Gohar is one of that core group of high quality Egyptians and clinched her first World Championship crown this year. Nicknamed the “Terminator”, she defeated compatriot El Sherbini in the final in four games in Cairo, her first victory over the same opponent after losing in their three previous encounters in the World Championship gold medal match from 2021. In total, she has won five major titles in a row so far this year, from the Black Ball Open in April to the World Tour Finals in June. In between were the El Gouna International, the World Championships and British Open. She then lost in three finals when the new season began in September, all to El Sherbini – the Egyptian Open, Pairs Squash and Qatar Classic. Gohar lifted her first World Tour title at the 2013 Prague Open and her victory over compatriot Omneya Abdel Kawy in the 2014 Monte Carlo Classic final elevated her into the world’s top 20. She reached the world no.1 spot in July 2020 as she succeeded the retiring Raneem El Welily and was crowned the Hong Kong Open champion in 2016, her first world series title when defeating Amanda Sobhy of the United States in the final. She also reached the 2022 Hong Kong Open semi-finals before losing to eventual champion Hania El Hammamy in five games.
